MUCH WORK UNDONE BY A PREA CHER

CHICAGO. April 4. "A dispatch to |" The News from
Norris Ill., says nc trial Of the alleged train robbers
Schwartz and Watt was given most unexpected
turn Yesterday, by an incident that will probably
destroy the worth of all the work 30 far done By
consent OF counsel and the jurors were permitted
to attend service at the Methodist Church. Dr.
Axtell, the officiating clergyman learned OF TIER
presence and taking IA his text the power OF Iite
things and before the aston,l ed aggregation the
iuiy could realize it, lie in the midst OF an ac
upon the importance OF apparently trivial circum,
stances when rightly viewed. As the train-rObber-
conviction depends largely upon circumstantial
evidence the surprise great, but Dr. Axtei pro
ceedcd TO tell how celebrated criminal had once been
convicted after long years by te-rae scrap OF
paper. A torn check figures largely in the Rock
Island case. aud much feeling expressed after the
services at the singular remarks OF the preacter Inc
attorneys for Schwartz and Watt will demand new
trial Tor their clients the ground OF un due inuence
upon the jury, il the prisoners are found guilty.
